Bayonetta 2 will come “when the time is right,” says Platinum

Platinum Games has given its strongest indication yet that we’ll see spandex-wearing witch Bayonetta in action again soon, saying a sequel to this year’s OTT action title will happen “when the time is right.”

Atsushi Inaba, co-founder of the Japanese developer, further told Eurogamer it “would love” to make a second title in the series.

“There is no concrete plan or schedule that we can talk about,” he said.

“It’s not like [creator Hideki] Kamiya said, ‘OK, we’re going to make this.

“But Bayonetta is definitely a special IP for us. We loved creating that game. We think it was a really good game.

“We would love to make a sequel to it when the time is right. That’s all we can say.”
